run proc

Format

O << run(File)

This is similar to link() but instead of a URL, you can pass a file to be viewed directly. The file may be a cache file or an external file.

mob/var/picture = 'mob.jpg'
mob/verb/view_pic(mob/M as mob in view())
  usr << run(M.picture)
 
mob/verb/set_pic(F as file)
  usr.picture = F

This example defines a picture to be associated with each mob and a verb for viewing another mob’s picture. Players can also configure their own pictures.
